Strict security measures will be implemented at the entrance and inside the building. To obtain a building pass: At the main entrance on Via Paolo di Dono 44, go through the security check point. Then enter the building and proceed to the registration lounge. Staff from the Independent Office of Evaluation of IFAD (IOE) will provide you with a delegate badge. A valid identity document will be required (e.g. passport). At IFAD premises, delegates are advised to wear their security badge at all times. Lost badges should be reported to the IFAD security check point at the main entrance, or send an email to [email protected] as soon as possible. Finding your way around Ground floor Ground floor Ground floor Basement Floor -1 E-AGM meeting room 2 3 HOW TO REACH IFAD HEADQUARTERS Metro (underground): IFAD headquarters is a 15-minute walk from Laurentina metro station, located in the southern suburb of Rome known as EUR. The station is the last stop of Line B, which connects to Rome’s historic city centre. The station also serves as a bus terminal. Bus: A shuttle bus service is available from Laurentina metro station to IFAD and vice versa at scheduled hours from Monday to Friday. The pick-up and drop-off point at Laurentina is at Viale Luca Gaurico 9-11, on the main road (right-hand side of the station's exit), while the IFAD drop-off and pick-up point is the yellow bus stop adjacent to IFAD's main entrance (between Via Paolo di Dono 44 and 50).

  • Rome Metro Line C Under Historical Centre
    Rome Metro Line C under Historical Centre Francesco Maria Rotundi, Eng., General Director Metro C s.c.p.a., Rome/I Roberto Sorge, Eng., Engineering Manager Metro C s.c.p.a., Rome/I 1 Introduction One of the most significant infrastructure works presently being executed, not only in Italy, the Rome Metro Line C (Fig. 1) is indisputably important due to the logistical and historical context within which the works are being executed and the significance of the infrastructure as such within the urban area. For this reason, the most sophisticated technology presently available in tunnelling or, more precisely, in the sector of mechanised tunnelling in urban areas, is being exploited. The construction of Line C will almost double the area covered by the current underground network. Its design and construction are a real engineering challenge because the new line • has unique characteristics due to the need to preserve the historical monumental and archaeological heritage of the covered areas, heritage that required careful preliminary investigations prior to the construction of stations and tunnels, as Colosseo/Fori Imperiali Station • crosses the city from the northwest to the southeast, facing different situations and problems that require spe cific solutions and are difficult to standardise, as Mirti Station 2 Historical Centre and Metro Line C 2.1 2.1 Preservation of monuments Allowing historical heritage and modernisation to coexist: this is the great challenge involved in Line C, which encounters historic buildings and monuments of great value. The Historical Centre of Rome is a UNESCO World Heritage site. To ensure construction of the new metro line does not damage this site, a Scientific Technical Committee (STC) was constituted, comprising world famous professors.

Pelizza & D. Peila DITAG, Politecnico di Torino, Torino, Italy R. Sorge & F. Cignitti Metro C S.c.p.a. (Astaldi S.p.a.), Rome, Italy ABSTRACT: The instantaneous filling of the annulus created behind the segment lining at the end of the tail shield during TBM advance is an operation of paramount importance. Its main goal is to minimize displacements around the tunnel and induced surface settlements due to lost volume at the tail shield. For correctly achieving these goals, the simultaneous back-filling system and the injected mate- rial should satisfy technical, operational and performance characteristics. The two-component injection system for back-filling while excavating with shielded TBMs is progressively replacing the traditional use of cementitious mortars. In the paper different systems of back-filling grout and in particular the two-component system are analyzed and discussed together with a description of the Rome Metro (Line C) case history where this type of back-filling was widely applied.

  • Rome Transportation Tips
    Rome Transportation Tips Public Transportation Rome has an integrated public transportation system. ATAC is the one and only public transportation system throughout the commune of Rome. Each ATAC ticket will work on all metro, buses, and trams in the urban area and some railways (FR). Tickets (biglietti) can be bought from tabacchi (look for the ‘T’ signs outside of convenient stores), newsstands, and at metro stations. You can also buy ATAC tickets from the JFRC lobby at reception. Regular tickets cost €1.50 and are valid for 100 minutes from the moment they are first stamped on the bus/metro. Within these 100 minutes, you are entitled to use any combination of buses, trams, and one Metro journey. You will need to stamp your ticket in the yellow machines when getting on the bus or tram, and/or put it through the turnstile when entering the Metro. A month pass costs €35 and allows for an unlimited number of journeys for that calendar month. A year pass costs €250 and allows for an unlimited number of journeys for 365 days from the date of purchase. If you are a full year student, purchasing a year pass is worth an investment. Metro Rome’s subway system (Metropolitana) has three lines and is marked by red M signs on city maps. The two lines, Lines A (red) and B (blue), intersect at Termini Station. Subway Line A connects the Vatican with Anagnina, the central bus terminal for routes to other cities in Lazio. Line B extends from Rebibbia to EUR. A recently inaugurated Line C connects area of Via Casilina to Pantano.
